American Express Travelers Cheques

Definition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQUES—

#The Kystem of Travellers Cheques was originated in 1801 by the American Express Company with the object of creating a form of travel currency which would give the holder the security of a letter of credit and at the same time the convenience of local currency. The Company registered the cheques under the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES ' ..the word Travellers' being spelled with one "1". The adantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions. adopted the system.”
